Forever 21 is firing back at the U.S. Department of Labor's claims of working with vendors who may not be following labor laws!

A rep for Forever 21 issued a statement on Friday saying:

"[The company] shares the Department of Labor’s commitment to proper wage payment under the Fair Labor Standards Act. To that end, Forever 21 promptly responded to the department’s subpoena with information that resulted in a full resolution of the matter under investigation. Forever 21 also offered to meet with the department and is surprised and disappointed that the department declined to meet before filing this action but looks forward to working with them to address any issues.”

So what's next?

If both parties are unable to come to an agreement, they'll be seeing each other in court.
